The 2025 Enduring International Partnership In Space Summit brings together thought leaders in space technology from around the world to explore which frameworks of cooperation best-tackle the evolving hurdles of humanity’s race to the stars. This RAeS Collaboration Nexus program will deliver high-value discussions critical to meet this moment in history and dive into key questions important to national security and civilian space—How can international teamwork defend satellites at the pace of the threat? What will follow the International Space Station? What technologies will need to come together to reach Mars?
For the answers, plus a morning of incredible conversation and networking, please join us.
